Hello everybody,

I am studying the rtcfg - stage2 configuration. When the stage2_file is larger 
than MTU (1500) the file is cat to fragments which are sent to slave one after 
another without any control of the file data transfer. I am having a problem 
with that because the my rtnet slave can not process the data so fast. This is 
why i am looking for some kind of flow control.

One option is the use of  Acknowledge_Configuration frame and 
Acknowledge_Length filed, which is sent by slave after it process one stage_2 
configuration fragment. But this means that the stage2_file in length of 100 
frames need 100 factorial (100*99*98*....*1) frames to be sent by master, which 
is a huge number.

That is why i would like to add/change this part in the rtcfg source so that it 
would enable fragment by fragment transmit of stage2 configuration file. What i 
am not sure is what part of the code cuts the stage2_file and transmit it. I 
went through the rtcfg.c and rtcfg_ioctl.c and i could not find where this 
happens.

Can someone please give me some hint what files should i check/change or point 
to workaround.

Best Regards
Klemen
